banana split

Parlor boat treat

A banana split is an ice cream sundae made with a banana sliced lengthwise, typically topped with three scoops of ice cream, whipped cream, chocolate sauce, and other toppings like nuts and cherries.

The dish is served in an elongated bowl that accommodates the split banana: We shared a banana split at the soda fountain.
